Software Siril

when I ran the script, I got the following error. Any idea? I am using the latest siril. 99.8.1

14:03:46: Cannot perform star matching: try #3. Image 5 skipped
14:03:46: Found 29 stars in image 4, channel #1

Thank you. I loaded each image and did that Dynamic PSF and I could see stars detected. I lowered it to 8 radius and I am ale to proceed but I still this error in the log. Not sure what to do

Which image it is complaining? Is it the one pp_light_0000… or original image? I opened both original and PP_xxxxx.

Or something wrong with darks? Please give me some idea to identify and fix this.

This is not a good idea to change this parameter.

ok. how do I know what is wrong with those images? All of them taken in the same session. I am not sure what is wrong in the ones it is complaining. if know, at least next imaging session I can take care. any idea?

Without seeing images. It is difficult to say. Try to play with the threshold.
